SAHEB – Yesterday, Today & ForEver

I do not think it is possible to write a Blog about the Person on whom an Epic can be created, History be rewritten and Era can be redrawn. Balasaheb Thackeray or SAHEB is not just a Political Leader, a Cartoonist, an orator but a divine personality who has shaped the lives of millions of people in Hindustan. Yes we ShivSainiks call it Hindustan not India.??Born on 23rd?of January 1926 this ?Saffron Storm? hit the world scene first??in 1960 in??the form of ?Marmik?- a weekly Marathi journal??and??on 19th?of June 1966 in form of ?ShivSena?.

?ShivSena? a political party in Hindustan has now become a Religion for ShivSainiks. Many did not like the Ideologies of ?SAHEB? like campaigning against South-Indians and other immigrants who were snatching the Jobs of Local Marathi Manus or BhumiPutra i.e. ?Son Of Soil?. When Hindustan was divided in Linguistic basis it was important for every state to protect the right of its Locals. In Southern States like Karnataka, Tamil Nadu the 1stpreference for job was given to Kannadis and Tamils similarly it was given to Punjabis in Northern states like Punjab & to Bengalis in Eastern state like West Bengal .

But it was not the same in Mumbai the capital of Marathi speaking state Maharashtra. Here most of the jobs were snatched by South Indians. Even in business people from other states had developed their strangle hold & because of this ?Marathi Manus? was becoming an Orphan. He was looking for a ?God Father? who would ignite a spark within him to fight for his rights. SAHEB provided this spark to Marathi speaking people in Mumbai. His Cartoons in ?Marmiks????& his rough & tough political speeches changed the way ?Marathi Manus? used to think & slowly & surely this spark developed into a fire and ?Marathi Manus? started to make his own place in the city of MUMBAI.

He urged ?Marathi Manus? to free themselves from the Clutches of Job & to start his own business. As years passed by SAHEB created a strong hold not only in Mumbai but in entire Maharashtra. His thinking level, deep knowledge on various subjects & to the guts to go against the flow made him unique. He is the only leader who said ? I do not believe in ?Lokshahi? i.e. Democracy but I believe in ?Shiv-Shahi? i.e.??they way??great Hindu king Shivaji Maharaj ruled Hindustan . It is only because of SAHEB that 80 % Marathis are employed in Government Jobs in Maharashtra. When ShivSena came to power during 1995-99 Balasaheb gifted Maharashtra with various projects like 55 flyovers in Mumbai, Mumbai ? Pune Express highway, Bandra ? Worli Sea Link, Employment Opportunities of Maharashtrians in Public as well as private sector. SAHEB even provided financial aid to small ? scale businesses run by Marathi Manus.

During the early 90?s when ?Babri Masjid? was demolished there were growing tensions between Hindus and Muslims which led to Riots in Mumbai. At that time ?SAHEB? protected innocent Hindus in Mumbai no matter whether he was a Gujarati, Marwari, Bihari, Rajasthani & so on. The growing tension from across the border i.e. Pakistan and some Traitors supporting Pakistan made it important for someone to fight for the right for Hindus. So ?SAHEB? adopted Hindutva and was crowned as ?HINDUHRUDAYSAMRAT? by his Hindu followers all across the world. Some say that ?SAHEB? was Anti-Muslim which is absolutely wrong. He was only against those Muslims who stayed in HINDUSTAN & supported Pakistan. He called those Traitors as ?LANDE?.

A kingmaker who followed the Great Shivaji Maharaj & Veer Sawarkar, ?SAHEB? even openly praised ?Adolf Hitler?. ?SAHEB? started ?SAAMNA? a Marathi News paper along with ?DOPAHAR KA SAAMNA? where he expressed his views on various opinions openly & boldly. A leader who dare to speak his views in public which many prefer to say only in their living rooms, even Pakistani Terrorists were afraid of ?SAHEB?. His stand on various issues like Reservation in Education, Cross Border Terrorism by Pakistan, opposing bullshit Foreign events like Valentine Days makes him unique. Today SAHEB is not within us but still his thoughts are encrypted in our hearts forever.
